City chicken isn't chicken. It's cubes of pork or beef that can be made and put on a skewer so you can eat it off a stick.
From Wikipedia: The dish (and hence the term) seem to be regionalized to the areas surrounding Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh-area preparations are almost always breaded and usually baked, whereas the Cleveland version is generally baked without breading and served with gravy. Grocery stores in both areas sell wooden skewers of pork cubes pre-prepared as city chicken.
City chicken is unique to Cincinnati as well as goetta ( a breakfast meat which is grind spicy pork mixed with rolled oats) and red hots ( a hot dog like sausage).
